    Nev Harris: Secrets to profitably pricing recurring revenue

    WordCamp Europe 2022Speaker: Nev Harris

    July 14, 2022 — Most of us realize how incredibly valuable and stress relieving having recurring revenue can be not only for our business but for our state of mind.

    We tend to price it in our normal fashion though. There are other considerations that are often overlooked and this ends up with our recurring revenue being less profitable than we expected.

    Understanding how to apply two simple concepts can ensure that our recurring revenue leads to higher profits with less stress.

  • Dave Lockie: WordPress and web3 trends (disruption, challenges, opportunities)

    Dave Lockie: WordPress and web3 trends (disruption, challenges, opportunities)

    WordCamp Europe 2022Speaker: Dave Lockie

    July 14, 2022 — In this talk, David will first give a whistle stop tour of the web3 universe – what is web3? What are DAOs, NFTs, smart contracts, Layer 2s and DeFi?

    He’ll then move on to focus on why they matter to WordPress. What are potential disruptors? Should we be scared or excited? Or both? What are some of the things that will likely be challenging? What might some of the opportunities be? What can WordPress teach the web3 community in return?

    David’s suspicion is that web3 will disrupt web2 (and humanity) to its core, helping us to ask good questions about the institutions we’ve built up and what we need going forward.

    The talk will attempt to combine zoomed out, blue sky thinking with some practical advice and guidance as well as introducing a number of ways in which the WordPress community can learn more about web3 and start to get involved.

  • Felix Arntz: Enhancing performance in an open-source CMS ecosystem

    Felix Arntz: Enhancing performance in an open-source CMS ecosystem

    WordCamp Europe 2022Speaker: Felix Arntz

    July 14, 2022 — While WordPress is still the CMS with the largest market share by far, certain proprietary CMSs have been heavily catching up in the past few years.

    Despite a much more limited feature set, they are gaining popularity, and much of that can be attributed to better user experience and performance.

    Admittedly, proprietary CMSs hosted in a controlled environment and maintained by a single company have a much easier job improving performance, compared to an open-source CMS with a massive third-party ecosystem with over 60,000 plugins and themes like WordPress.

    But exploring ways to enhance performance in WordPress at scale is crucial for long-term success and, with over 40% market share, should even be a responsibility towards the open web.

    In late 2021, the official WordPress performance team was formed, to tackle monitoring, enhancing, and promoting performance in the WordPress ecosystem.

    This session will take a closer look at the origin of the team, its focus areas and initial priorities, the goals achieved so far, the roadmap for the future, and how you can help.
